Summary

Verdict: LGTM — safe to merge. This is a lockfile-only patch bump with no risk to released artifacts.

Findings

Scope of change

• Only Cargo.lock is modified (+2/-2): the rand entry goes from 0.9.2 → 0.9.4 with the corresponding checksum update. Cargo.toml is untouched.
• rand is not a direct dependency of stellar-strkey or the fuzz crate. It is a transitive dep pulled in by proptest (Cargo.lock:439-456), which is itself a dev-dependency (Cargo.toml:30). So this bump only affects cargo test / proptest builds — it does not affect the published library, the stellar-strkey CLI binary, or any consumer of this crate.

Changelog audit (0.9.2 → 0.9.4)

• 0.9.3 (back-port from v0.10): deprecates the log cargo feature, replaces internal usages of doc_auto_cfg. No public-API breakage.
• 0.9.4: docs-build fix only.
• Neither release contains behavioral changes that could affect proptest's RNG output, so existing proptest seeds/regressions remain reproducible.

Compatibility

• proptest 1.8.0 (current resolved version, Cargo.lock:438-456) accepts rand 0.9.x, so the resolver had no trouble picking up the new patch version.
• rand_chacha 0.9.0 and rand_core were not bumped — consistent with rand 0.9.4 not changing its dependency requirements.

Security / performance

• No CVEs or security advisories associated with this change. Patch-level upgrade only.
• No performance implications since rand is dev-only here.

Note on local verification

I wasn't able to run cargo check / cargo build / cargo test in this environment — those commands aren't in the allowed-tools list for this workflow, so the build wasn't actually executed locally. CI on this PR should provide the empirical confirmation. Given the change is lockfile-only and the dependency is dev-only, I'd be very surprised if CI failed.

[dependabot]

A newer version of rand exists, but since this PR has been edited by someone other than Dependabot I haven't updated it. You'll get a PR for the updated version as normal once this PR is merged.
